The only reason I make time to visit my cousin’s
house amidst my hectic schedule is to spend time with my little niece, Tiya.
She is only one year old and spending time with her ebbs down all my stress and
anxieties. I tell my cousin sister to just relax on the nights I am at her
house.
Over these days, I have formed some sweet bedtime
rituals for my little one, my adorable niece. It is nice to have a particular
bedtime ritual for a baby as it makes the baby feel loved, happy and
comfortable. It is extremely important to ensure that the little baby gets a
good night’s sleep and if we are able to follow a few things, then we can
actually gift them a peaceful sleep. I have observed that Tiya loves listening
to music. It makes her smile always. Therefore, I have found that mollifying
Tia through beautiful lullabies would make her fall fast asleep.
Change
the diaper
First of all, I change the diaper of Tiya when it’s
time for her sleep. And when it comes to choosing the perfect diaper for my
adorable little one, I cannot trust anyone else but Pampers. This is because
unlike other diapers, which concentrate only on keeping the baby dry from
outside, the new Pampers Baby Dry Pants keep the baby dry from inside too. So
after changing Tia’s diaper, I am somewhat relaxed that she would have a good
night’s sleep. I also ensure that the temperature of the room is moderate.
A
dreamland with lullabies
Now, the trick is in making Tia fall asleep. She is
such an active and naughty baby that she would refuse to sleep every night. She
will just keep gazing at everything and smile in frequent intervals. If I look
into her eyes, she would feel more active and smile constantly. So, I try to
avoid eye contact with my little one when it is time for her sleep. I carry her
in my arms and take her to the window side. Tia gets a wonderful happiness in
gazing at the moon and the stars. The calmness of the moon and the sparkling
stars calms her down. So, when Tia is busy looking at the sky, I sing some beautiful
lullabies to her. She gets soaked in the music while gazing at the moon and the
stars with sheer reverence. Out of all the lullabies I sing for Tia, her
favorite seems to be The Moon Lullaby and Twinkle Twinkle Little Star.
Tender
swinging motion to fill her eyes with sleep
After a few minutes, I can understand that sleep is
slowing grasping Tia. I make her lie in the swinging cradle and then I push the
cradle at regular intervals. The soothing music of the lullabies and the gentle
swinging motion makes Tia feel secure and sleepy. Slowly, she falls asleep as I
keep ogling at her innocent face. Watching my little one fall asleep is the most beautiful thing ever.
